Suppose you decide you want to live a healthier lifestyle. A new fitness club has opened. At the time when the new club opened, there were 100 people that pre-registered and each week an average of 7 new members joined. When the local YMCA opened, there were 573 members and enrollment has decreased by 3 members since the new fitness club opened. After how many weeks will the total number of members for each fitness club be the same? Equation 1: Equation 2: After how many weeks will the total number of members for each fitness club be the same?
